Virtual Listening Party Set For Regina Spektor

Regina Spektor’s latest release, Begin to Hope, drops June 13, but for fans of the quirky anti-folk songstress, a one-of-a-kind sneak peek will be available next week when Sire Records holds an interactive virtual listening party.

The event will take place at popular 3-D virtual world Second Life, an interactive online community. A free membership must be created to view Spektor’s virtual room and hear Begin to Hope. Users will then have the opportunity to discuss the new release.

Begin to Hope is the fourth album from Spektor and features Strokes guitarist Nick Valensi. Spektor opened for The Strokes on their last tour.
